Cambridge Chemistry Challenge Lower Sixth!

hi guys,
just did this challenge and found it very hard. won't be telling you anymore than that though. I was just wondering if it is externally marked and when we will get our mark. Also how did you all find it?

I got a Copper award

13.5 for me

how did you find out??? was it through your teacher??

teacher should tell you by now, 0.5 mark off a copper

havent heard anything from my teacher - when did they decide the boundaries for awards?

you should talk to him then.

when did they decide the boundaries for awards?

Pretty much straight away, they go by % of students achieving above a certain mark.

I heard last week and got the certificates through for my lot on like thursday. They were pretty quick!

"detrimental"?

If you won bronze at the Olympics, would you be afraid to mention that because you didn't win gold?

Any achievement will make you stand out. A copper award, although seemingly "low" still represents an achievement given that those sitting the paper will all be passionate enough about chemistry to VOLUNTEER to sit a 90min ball-breaker of a test!
